NO chance. As soon as a few elections are out the way. They gunna push a new strain, lockdowns and mandates like we havnt seen yet

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout It will before the next election and every one they think they can get away with!

No, it's just reorganising to kick our collective ass further

Nope. There's a new strain, XE, being watched right now.

But the continuing strains aren't really the issue. We're treating Covid like an acute attack that's conquered and forgotten, but it's turning out that this virus' most deadly effects may be felt long term. Not so much an illness and a disease in effect.

Humans are little more savvy than dogs when it comes to object permanence. If we can't see it, we assume it's not there. But it is. Right now, the estimated prevalence of long Covid across previously infected populations stands at 43%. That's a lot of burden on the healthcare system in the coming months and years. And all those "co-existing conditions" so many liked to blame deaths on? Covid is literally creating them as we speak.

@Graylight “Humans are little more savvy than dogs when it comes to object permanence. If we can't see it, we assume it's not there!“

Says it all. Best statement ever!!

Graylight · 51-55, F

@Handfull1 it's certainly true in my case. 😉

No, the left won't let go of control yet.

Plus, I know seven people, vaccinated and boosted people that tested positive last week.

FreestyleArt · 31-35, M

It's now Crackvid-19. Don't worry you won't get effected because Crackvid-19 only tagets Politicians and it was made inside Hunter Biden's Laptop

No there are new variants and most importantly the people who refuse to get vaccinated allow this virus to mutate and spread.

Torsten · 36-40, M

it magically disappeared when the war in Russia started

familyfunguy · 56-60, M

I thought I read an article quoting some doctors earlier yesterday, saying something like we're probably only in the 4th inning. If that were true then no. Philadelphia is reinstating it's mask mandate. Covid news is looking a bit grimmer lately.

wildbill83 · 36-40, M

it will never be "over", once a virus is released on the world, it always lingers. Same as the flu/influenza

The real question is whether people will cave in to the fear mongering or get on with their lives as we have always done...

Pfuzylogic · M

On the contrary the new infections have been taken over by latest variant.
Third wave tsunami coming in considering so many are massless now.

China is holding 30 million under quarantine. China is taking COVID seriously. The US won't take the next wave seriously. We are waiting for a disaster.
